When change occurs, what does it leave in its wake? What is left behind? Where better to explore these questions than in The Standard’s new hotel—itself a symbol of the ever-changing East Village. Join John Haskell, Anka Muhlstein, and others as they discuss the metamorphoses of identity and ideology in their work, and in today’s literary landscape.
